Obligatory first post

To help keep me focused on my task at hand during this blog, I'm doing the typical "this is what this blog is about" posts so I can have something to reference when I decide to rant or go on tangents.

I have a tendency to do that sometimes. Hopefully, if do rant or decide to travel along tangents, I will look back on this post and bring the discussion back to my task at hand.


Onto to the actual task:

This blog is an effort to dissect and deconstruct the national debt argument happening in Washington D.C.

I hope to cover issues like the supercommittee, cuts to medicare and social security, the upcoming triggers that will take effect if no decision is made and any other debt-related news that surfaces the rest of the year.

The reason I decided to this: I don't really know what is better for the country, and I don't trust the politicians — with all of their lobbyists and promises – to know what is right either.


Since I can't trust the politicians to do the right thing, I will fix my problem.

I'm working on the first post to fix that problem right now; I look forward to discussing this important, controversial issue with you.
